The show played Sadler’s Wells Theatre in 1994 and won the Olivier Award for Best Choreography, and then opened in New York, where it is now celebrating its 21st birthday. The European company was created in 1997 and began its London run at the Vaudeville Theatre in 2002, transferring to the Ambassadors Theatre in 2007.
